Manuel Jiménez:
Music Producer / Sound Engineer
Profile:
Recording Engineer and Musician, with high technical knowledge of creative sound applications in music and sound for picture. Passionate, experienced and highly proficient in the art and science of music mixing, sound design, recording and sound editing.
Bio:
My name is Manuel Jiménez and I was born in Atlanta, GA; but grew up in San José, Costa Rica. At the age of 14, my life changed when I started playing guitar with close friends and recording our songs on a Tascam 4-track. Five years later, our band had played in over 70 concerts all over Costa Rica, and we recorded our first album. It was from that moment on, that I knew that sound was my passion and my destiny.
My musical studies lead me to a Bachelor of Music (Cum Laude) from Berklee College of Music in 2008, dual major in MPE/CWP (Music Production and Engineering / Contemporary Writing and Production). Through the years I have worked with many artists, in many genres of music and from all over the world. As a sound-mixer and designer I am starting to build a great reel, working with independent film makers from all over the world as well.
Currently, I live in Hollywood, CA and work as a freelance Sound Engineer in many diferent projects. I would love to meet new people and get a chance to work on new music, films, or anything that involves the artistic or technical aspects of sound.

Bio:
Marian Jiménez Bruna was born in San José, Costa Rica. Her love of films and TV was apparent as a child, though her passion for moviemaking did not develop until further on in her life. Wanting to explore the world, and never being able to stay in one place for too long; Marian attended boarding school in Lawerenceville, NJ. At Lawerenceville she developed a strong art foundation through rigorous high level courses in art, photography, and graphic design. Inspired by her film professor at Lawrenceville, Marian enrolled in NYFA 5 week summer program in order to further explore the world of film and television. Her experience was invaluable and was the reason why she decided to pursue a degree in film at RISD.

After graduating Marian moved to New York City and started her career in the film and TV industry. She has worked with companies like PBS, MTV, BIO, TRU, and RDF Media, as assistant editor and works as freelance filmmaker.
